Canada D’eh
Date/Time: July 1, 10-11PM EDT (July 2, 0200-0300 UTC)
Frequency: WBCQ The Planet, 6160 & 7490 kHz
July 1st is Canada Day, and since RCI is no longer blessing shortwave listeners with its presence on the short waves, Fred Waterer, a genuine Canadian, and “Uncle Bill” Tilford, an American who is frequently mistaken for one, will present Canada D’eh, an affectionate salute to the occasion with music, humor, fun facts and stories on WBCQ The Planet, which is right next door to Canada with time donated by Angela and Allan Weiner.
